Chapter 203 Ease of Contradictions and the Prisoner of Azkaban
After Apparating away from the great desert with Carlson, Ron returned to his family, which of course was inevitably scolded by Mrs. Weasley with concern and concern.
After all, whether you are 13, 23, or even [-] or [-], in the eyes of your parents, you are still a child, and their concerns will not fade with time.
In the following days, after visiting Cairo, they turned to Aswan, from Philae Temple to Abu Simbel, then sailed along the Nile in a sailboat, and took a hot air balloon in Luxor to the Valley of the Kings On top of that, I finally transferred to Hurghada, where I stayed for a few days in this half-sea, half-flame city, diving in the Red Sea, and driving a sandboat in the Sahara Desert.
Such an exhilarating journey was an unprecedented travel experience for them, leaving enough aftertaste for them to relish in the following whole year.
Just when they finished their tour and were about to return to England, an unexpected but reasonable award of honors began on the occasion of parting. At this time, Mrs. Weasley and the others knew what Ron had done. something.
But for the sake of Ron's safety, all that remained in their hearts was pride and pride.
A Saladin eagle gold medal symbolizing friendship and glory was pinned on Ron's chest. This badge of the highest honor in Egypt is similar to the Medal of Merlin, and it is the highest symbol of honor in Egypt.
Riding on the Gulfstream G300 that now belongs to Ron, the family happily returned to the Burrow, which they had not seen for a long time.
Giggs kept the house in order when they left. Even the chickens and goats that were not fat under Mrs. Weasley's feeding were visibly fattened by the naked eye, which made Ron's index finger big. With a big appetite, he immediately cooked a roast whole lamb full of oil, and made a few not-so-authentic beggar chickens by the way.
Now that the first week of July has passed, I have stayed in Egypt for more than a month, and the cold morning in England is quite nostalgic.
"Be careful on the road, Ron! Have you brought all the gifts?"
Just after breakfast, Ron took his leave and left the house. Mrs. Weasley asked loudly behind him. Seeing Ron's hurried appearance, she could not hide her smile.
"I've brought them all, don't worry, Mom!"
Ron waved his hand up, then raised his wand and called for the Knight Bus.
When I took a terrible desert passenger bus in Egypt, although the Knight bus is not comfortable in the eyes of Ron today, it must not be said to be bad. It is hundreds of times worse than this. .In this world, there is no harm without comparison.
This time, there was no need for Hermione to go out to pick him up, and he reported the address directly, and the Knight Bus directly took Ron to the downstairs of Hermione's house.
Not long after the doorbell was pressed, there was a rush of downstairs coming from the door, and Hermione, who was still in her nightgown and slippers, opened the door. She smiled brightly, and then gave Ron a big hug.
"What about uncle and aunt?"
"They had an appointment in the morning and just left."
"Oh~~~" Ron procrastinated and raised his eyebrows emphatically, "Mom and Dad are not at home today~"
He closed the door behind him casually, and put on the indoor slippers, but before he could have any bad thoughts, Hermione stepped on his feet, then turned around and left bouncing around.
"Hurry up and make breakfast, I'm going to brush my teeth."
Simply fried an egg and warmed up the milk, and finally two slices of toast that were just toasted. After going downstairs, Hermione chatted with Ron about the interesting things about her previous trip with her parents while enjoying breakfast. .
During the holiday, Hermione's family also went on a trip. For a wealthy middle-class family, such a trip would happen once a year. Hermione's parents loved their daughter very much.
The two who haven't seen each other for more than a month always have a lot to say. It's afternoon in a blink of an eye. Seeing that parents are about to go home from get off work, Hermione, who suddenly feels a little guilty, left a text message and put it in the The mountain of gifts that Ron brought was piled up.
After they left the house arm in arm, the two happily chatting happily did not notice the eyes secretly watching them leave.
Mr. Granger, who had just returned home from get off work, sighed in the car.
"Let's have another one"
He held his wife's hand and sighed helplessly, but the sigh didn't last long. After seeing the familiar bottle containing the small blue pills hidden in the gift pile, Mr. Granger It seems that I have found the feeling when I was in love again.
Alchemy is really fragrant, and the little pill is really exciting!
The two who left also came to Hyde Park leisurely, which is very close to Hermione's house. After watching the sunset in the Oriental Mandarin Hotel next to the park and enjoying an early dinner, the rest in the Muggle world is also It's almost the end.
Although the Muggle world is much more luxurious than the magical world in some places, as wizards, they still prefer the atmosphere of the magical world. The feeling of being surrounded by wonderful magic has its own unique beauty, but Before returning to the wizarding world.
"How about we pick Harry up on the way? Ginny misses him a lot, and with only three weeks left, Harry's time is almost over."
Ron borrowed the restaurant's phone and dialed a number. Nicole May also gave Ron some incidental services when sending him a private jet. After all, it would be troublesome for wizards to go to the Muggle airport. There's no Floo network there, and the easiest way is to take a Muggle car.
A latest Rolls-Royce Silver Spur was parked at the entrance of the hotel. Although it did not have a starry sky roof, and even the seats were not as spacious as future luxury cars, but in 1993, it was equipped with rhinoceros leather seats and walnut interior In the eyes of Ron, who is full of all kinds of cool luxury cars in his mind, this square body and the flying goddess logo on the front of the car are not very different from the Santana. It is probably just more comfortable to sit on. no difference.
When we came to Little Whinging from the center of London, the sky was getting dark, and the garden houses on both sides of Privet Drive were brightly lit, and they looked quiet and peaceful.
Guided by the street lights, the vehicle moved forward silently, and soon they arrived at the place.
“Tuk Tuk Tuk~”
Ron knocked on the door, and the lights in the living room were still on. The Dursleys hadn't rested yet, which is when most people finished dinner.
But the knock on the door was not answered by footsteps coming here, but a burst of shrill curses and a burst of screams and exclamations accompanied by broken dishes.
"—they just died in a car accident! You liar, little villain, they left you to be a burden to these respectable, hard-working relatives!"
The door of the room couldn't stop the roaring sound like a lion from the east of the river, but then, the voice sounded again: "You are rude! The ungrateful little—"
The sound came to an abrupt end, followed by the sound of bowls and plates being smashed, followed by the barking of "Wow, woof, woof".
"Maggie!"
Ron recognized the voices of Harry's Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia.
"Do not--"
There was a yelping kick at the end of the barking, and Uncle Vernon let out a yelp, as if the dog had bit him.
"It seems that the time we came here is really a coincidence?"
Ron touched the lock behind him, and the door swung open.
"You can't cast spells outside the school, Ron." Although Hermione said this, she had no intention of stopping it. This subconscious opening was just instinct, but to be honest, they were not very afraid of such things.
"But it's an emergency, and I don't think the Aurors at the Ministry of Magic will make things difficult for us, do they?"
Pushing open the door, when he came to the dining room, Ron saw Harry dragging the box and the owl cage.
"Even if you run away from home, there's still time to say hello, Harry?"
"Ron, Hermione, why are you here?"
"Didn't I agree, after I come back from my trip, I will pick you up here?"
"But I don't think they'll take my farewell."
Harry glared at the dining room angrily. A fat woman who had been blown up into a balloon and was swinging from the ceiling and couldn't get down was trying to open the window and fly out of the room.
Even though Uncle Vernon was pulling her feet hard, the human balloon still moved towards the window.
Presumably what Harry was thinking at the time was: shut up this woman and get the hell out of here as far as possible.
The magical magic answered Harry's request, so the following scene occurred.
"Put him down! Put him down! Boy!"
Uncle Vernon kicked the old bulldog away, and he came limping out of the restaurant. The dog bit him so hard just now, his trousers were already bleeding.
"How about some white meat? But I suggest you go to the hospital to get a rabies vaccine. After all, this dog doesn't look like a normal dog."
Ron glanced at the bulldog who was thrown out and still looked fierce, and then took out a small bottle from the space bag.
"Why are you again! Come! Here!"
Immediately, Vernon, whose attention was attracted by Ron, gritted his teeth and opened his mouth. He didn't know if the place where he was bitten by the dog hurt, or there was some other reason.
"I knocked, and you need help, don't you?"
Vernon's neck was flushed, but after seeing the balloon-like Maggie, he could only be silent.
"Just drop it on the wound. You only need one drop. It is very effective for most traumas, and it won't leave scars on small wounds."
Vernon took the vial suspiciously, then stretched out his hand stiffly.
"Put her down quickly." He paused, then gritted his teeth and added, "Please!"
"No problem, but before that, we need a little communication."
"Know why this .uh." Ron was a little at a loss as to what to call the balloon.
"It's Maggie." Uncle Vernon added, just as Aunt Petunia took the small bottle of Baixian and pulled open his trouser leg, where a dog bit him and left a bloody wound.
"Why Maggie was turned into this way, you should be clear, right? I don't understand the previous things, but before entering the door, I heard her make a vicious speech about Harry's parents that shouldn't be there."
Ron waved his finger, and the balloon that was trying to get out of the window was immediately pulled back and floated directly above the living room.
The vicious dog rushed towards Ron barking, and was kicked carelessly to the ceiling to accompany the balloon.
"I know you are prejudiced against wizards, and you don't understand wizards, but don't turn this into hatred and hostility. A situation like this is actually very bad. We could have lived in peace, but the wrong way of treating it will Let there be more misunderstandings between wizards and ordinary people who already have gaps."
"Harry's parents didn't die in a car accident. I think you probably understand it. For example, you know Hitler, right? The one who killed Harry's parents was the little Hitler who was raging in England. His name was Voldemort, a I want wizards to rule ordinary people who don't have magic, and establish a society similar to slavery."
"At the beginning, Voldemort killed wizards born in non-magic families just like Hitler killed Jews, and Harry's parents, who were rebels, used their lives to end Voldemort's rampage. Simply put, if no one stopped Voldemort , let him continue to fulfill his ambition, after the misfortune of wizards, you ordinary people who don't know magic will face a terrible disaster."
"Although you don't know what Harry's parents did, after I tell you today, I hope you can have a little respect for these two people who dedicated their lives to a great cause. This is not an excessive request, right? ?”
"You should be proud of your sister. She is one of the best witches in the magical world and has done many things that others cannot."
Ron looked at Aunt Petunia. In fact, this lady had an awkward and subtle emotion towards her sister.
There is jealousy, there is fear, there are many complex emotions that cannot be expressed.
Aunt Petunia nodded imperceptibly, staring down at the wound that had recovered after the white fresh dripping, which made her a little dazed.
"Perhaps we should thank him."
Uncle Vernon spoke bluntly. As an adult, he would not suddenly cry and beg Harry for forgiveness because of these stories. He has his own ideas and will keep some things in his heart.
"You don't need to thank you, it's good that you know it, and it's even better if you can understand."
"So, as a heroic son, Harry's parents won the Medal of Merlin First Class last year, which is long overdue. In exchange for you, it is probably the Grand Cross of the Knights of the British Empire, which is one of the highest honors in the European magic circle. one."
The pupils of Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia narrowed slightly. It is impossible for them not to know what the Knight Grand Cross represents. Seeing this, Ron nodded in satisfaction and continued:
"As their son, do you think Harry can really accept such harsh slander and humiliation?"
Ron pointed to Maggie, who was getting rounder and rounder. Harry's magic power just exploded in anger was not low at all.
"Is this...really?" Vernon moved his hands and feet, and asked with a serious face after finding that there was no pain. He still can't believe that this really happened.
"Harry, you can show them, you have it with you, don't you?"
"Hmm." Harry nodded silently, and then carefully took out a small box from the golden pocket watch, which contained a delicate and gorgeous badge. At the bottom of the badge, there were James Potter and Lily Poe special name.
At the same time, Harry also took out a newspaper clipping, which published the information of the award. This newspaper with moving pictures seems to be very convincing to Vernon.
"No need to thank, but I think the minimum respect must be preserved. You don't have to be afraid of magic and wizards. Although there are dark wizards in the magic world, there are always more good people. The police in the magic world—Auror, They'll take care of those things."
"So Maggie, what now?"
After knowing the truth of all this, Uncle Vernon's attitude towards Harry changed slightly. It's not that he didn't understand these things, but no wizard had ever told him these things in detail, and neither had Dumbledore.
In England, the gap between wizards and Muggles is too obvious. There are only a handful of countries in the world where wizards and ordinary people can get along harmoniously. Wizards in most places have this inexplicable sense of arrogance. This is actually very abnormal, wizards are also human beings, and their ancestors must have been ordinary people.
But in the eyes of more countries, Huaxia, where the relationship between wizards and ordinary people is too normal, seems out of place in their eyes because it is too normal, but due to the power of the Eastern overlord, they will not be too much about this kind of thing.
Think about it!In a country that advocates 'human rights', 'democracy' and 'freedom', even the Muggle government, the police and other public officials will do some things that seem unusually wrong
The building collapsed in half, and rescue was announced within 16 hours. The rescuers took a break every 45 minutes and did not work overtime at night. They had to go to sleep after 8 hours of 'working'. Many of the people buried below hadn't died yet, so the government gave up on the rescue. By the way, the other half of the building was blown up, and their graves were buried more firmly.
Then caught a wild cat outside the ruins, and made a big statement: We failed to rescue anyone!But we rescued free spirits, and even a cat!A little girl who lost her parents is sure to find a lot of comfort in cuddling this rescued (actually random) kitten from the rubble.
This kind of thing that is basically unreasonable in China can happen naturally in a 'foreign country'. This is the case between ordinary people and ordinary people, so why talk about wizards and Muggles?
"Then I'll try it?"
Maggie was turned into a balloon not because of some magic spell, but when she was angry, the out-of-control magic responded to Harry, and then this kind of accident happened.
Although he has no experience, but with his amazing intuition, Ron thinks that he should not make things worse.
He waved his finger, and the dog that fell on the ground let out an 'ow' in pain and ran away, while Maggie, who was floating in the sky and getting bigger and bigger, was farting in a series of "poof~~~ Puff puff puff ~~~ puff ~~~~" The sound was like a leaking balloon, and the air was blown out of the mouth quickly, and it was scurrying against the ceiling '呵呀'.
The chandelier in the restaurant was shot down in an instant, which caused Aunt Petunia to let out a scream, and the human-shaped balloon bouncing back and forth on the wall slammed down viciously on the dining table, and Maggie, who had crushed the table, let out a cry of pain. Huh, but before she got up.
"It appears that Harry was very angry at the time."
Ron spread his hands helplessly, and the balloon that had just been deflated was inflated again.
Immediately, Uncle Vernon's face froze again. He tried his best to observe Maggie carefully with his eyes wide open, then turned his head sharply, and stared at Harry with his small eyes wide open.
Uncle Vernon, with his puffed chest, took a deep breath, but in the end, he let out a helpless sigh.
Although Maggie is asking for trouble, it is appropriate to put it anywhere, but he wants to help now. Harry dares to scold, but Ron
can't be bothered
He saw Ron's name on that newspaper clipping. Although it didn't clearly state why he was awarded this kind of medal, there are one first-level and one second-level medal. This in itself is already very bluffing.
What's more, Vernon has always suspected that even in their world, this guy is probably a super-rich descendant of aristocrats. Today, all the clothes Ron and Hermione wear are prepared by Madam LeMay. The kids really like it.
Intergenerational relatives!How many generations have passed between them.
At this embarrassing moment, with a bang, there was another knock on the door, and several Aurors walked in through the half-closed door, and behind the Aurors, the chubby Fudge's face It was full of smiles.
"Minister Fudge, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you have lost weight."
"Business is busy, but this is what I should do."
Fudge wiped the sweat from his forehead, he smiled kindly to the uncle next door, and then hugged Ron cordially.
After the Voldemort incident broke out, Fudge had to admit even if he didn't want to admit that Voldemort had returned, and what Voldemort brought to the British wizarding world this time was not just panic.
Dumbledore's trial of Voldemort's Horcrux in front of all the students and teachers of the school and all the wizards of the Wizengamot actually worked very well.
In the powerful speech of the legendary white wizard, the wizards in England seemed to be injected with a shot in the arm. The speech about the torch was discussed so overwhelmingly that the wizards in England had a little yearning for China. explore.
This passage indeed points out a direction for them, a direction in which they can work hard to move forward.
What people fear most is not having no way, but getting lost in the dark.
Although Fudge is unwilling to accept the return of Voldemort, the status quo is a done deal, and it is a fact that he must face now. In the past few months, Fudge has really lost weight, which is frightening and tiring.
After all, he came to power only because at that time he needed a person like him who did nothing but couldn't do anything stupid to muddy the water and fool people. Incompetence is actually a kind of ability.
Fudge, who is under a lot of pressure now, really wants to hug Ron's thigh tightly. After all, anyone standing behind him can make Fudge easily overcome the difficulties in front of him.
Or rather... the difficulties we are facing now.
"Kingsley, I leave this to you."
Fudge patted the shoulder of his capable officer, and Kingsley nodded calmly. This kind of small accident is actually not difficult for Aurors to solve.
Just as Fudge warmly embraced Ron's shoulders, and the four of them left the Dursleys' house, a series of "puff puffs" sounded, and Maggie, who was deflated and then continued to be deflated, was suffering unprecedentedly in her life. An unpleasant experience, but her memory will be modified later, there is a high probability that she will not leave any psychological shadow. After all, the British Ministry of Magic also attaches great importance to 'human rights'~
"Minister, do you have something to talk to me about?"
"It's flattering that such a small matter can still work for your master."
Ron easily stuffed Harry's luggage into the trunk, and the empty owl cage was also put in.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, I just happened to meet him, so I came to take a look. I have been working overtime in the office for too long, and I need to come out to get some air."
"I heard that you did a wonderful thing in Egypt? Yesterday, the Egyptian Ministry of Magic sent us a thank you letter about you. This is completely unexpected!"
"The patron saint of Egypt." Fudge paused slightly, his tone full of envy, "I really didn't expect you to be involved in this matter."
"It's mainly due to the teacher's contribution, and Huaxia's support. I'm actually an enthusiastic crowd passing by, and I didn't do anything."
Ron's scraping sword method is still fresh in his memory. Even if it is an incomplete patron saint, it is not something that a little wizard like him can handle. However, scraping is really shameful, so let's not mention it.
"Humility is not what you should have at your age. Young people can be more ostentatious. It is extremely rare to be able to do things like you at the age of 13!"
Fudge laughed and patted Ron on the back like an uncle looking at his favorite nephew.
"However, recently." Fudge thought for a while, as if he was struggling with something in his mind, but soon he organized his words, "I think since you are still a student, you might as well Continue to learn with the teacher during the holidays."
"Minister Fudge, what happened during my absence from England?"
Ron, who hadn't read the Daily Prophet for a long time, looked at Fudge with some doubts. It is impossible for Sirius to escape from prison again.
Ron looked at Hermione, who had always had the habit of subscribing to the Daily Prophet.
However, Hermione just shook her head slightly, and the Daily Prophet did not reveal any information.
"This..." Fudge took Ron's shoulders and took two steps away, then lowered his voice.
"Something did happen"
Seeing Fudge's uneasy expression, Ron guessed and asked, "Peter Pettigrew escaped from prison? Didn't I suggest you give him a dementor kiss? What's the point of keeping such a scumbag?"
Fudge, who was immediately embarrassed, cleared his throat, but Ron, who saw something more than that in his eyes, frowned.
"Who else?"
"."
Fudge was silent for a moment.
"Although there is no news yet, it's only a matter of time. The guards in Azkaban have never been easy to eat. And I have never seen them so annoyed."
He shivered involuntarily. Fudge, who had been to Azkaban to inspect the scene not long ago, still had a trace of bone-chilling cold on his body.
"Maybe we can catch them tomorrow morning, don't worry."
"Who are they referring to?"
"Aside from Peter Pettigrew, who else ran away from Azkaban?"
"You know, I'll ask Professor Dumbledore the same, the Ministry of Magic will not hide this kind of prison escape like the Wizengamot, right?"
Ron's tone hardened a little, which prevented Fudge from continuing to play dumb.
"And Bellatrix."
Fudge said the name quickly.
"She has obviously been in Azkaban for more than ten years, she has already gone crazy! How is this possible!"
"Did Lucius Malfoy go to Azkaban?"
"No, absolutely not." Fudge waved his hand, "No one in Azkaban has applied for a visit for several months."
"Where are the prisoners?"
"Prisoners." Fudge was stunned for a moment, "There were two half a month ago, but it's unlikely, they've already been arrested."
"Perhaps I should go back and interrogate again."
Some people have escaped from Azkaban, so no matter how outrageous things are, Fudge thinks that they should be investigated.
In case there is a clue!
"Okay kid, this reminder is very important, so I have to hurry up and investigate now."
"During the last part of the holiday, you stay at home and don't run around, I suspect."
"Because I killed their master Voldemort, didn't I?"
Fudge shivered violently. Anything related to Voldemort would make him nervous. In the past few months, Fudge has been tortured by Voldemort's affairs. Aurors need more funds to train the team. The war's budget is doubling. If he can't properly appease all these things, let alone make money, his position may not be stable.
Fudge really wanted to go back to the time when he wrote to Dumbledore every day for advice, but he had already discovered that he couldn't go back now.
Fudge, who was in a hurry, left with the Aurors, and the battle in the Dursleys' house gradually subsided.
"Forget it, let's go." Ron shook his head. He didn't take Bellatrix's threat too seriously. A crazy woman who has been imprisoned for more than ten years, although the beast that lost its mind is crazy , but also full of flaws.
"Go live at my house today, and tomorrow, we'll meet Neville."
"Compared to us, after Neville got the news."
Harry and Hermione couldn't help but fell silent. They also knew that the person who tortured Neville's parents to the point of insanity was that crazy woman named Bellatrix.
They got into the luxury car, and after getting out of Azkaban, Harry asked Ron with some doubts: "Just now, Ron, why did you tell them so much?"
"Is it strange?"
"There is indeed one thing, you know, Uncle Vernon and I and I didn't get along very well, it can be said to be terrible." Harry was also sullen when he spoke, and he still felt a little uncomfortable.
"This is the misunderstanding caused by mutual ignorance. To be honest, Harry, although they are not good to you, and it can even be said to be quite mean, but if you look at it from another angle, it is a different story. .”
Harry was puzzled by Ron's words. He turned his head from the front row and looked straight at Ron.
"First of all, I don't deny their persecution of you. This word is serious. Sleep in the cabinet under the stairs. You can only use things that are worse than second-hand goods for food, clothing, and use. There is no Birthday, no wishes, no concern, to be honest, Harry, when you told me these things, I even thought it was a joke."
"Our family was very poor, but I still had a complete childhood, but you have nothing."
"And the cause of all this, in the final analysis, is the fear generated by their ignorance of magic, as well as a very complicated...emotion."
"Your mother is a wizard, and as her older sister, Petunia actually knows about the wizarding world and magic, but she denies magic, refuses to admit it, and even hates seeing it. I once asked Professor Dumbledore Some things about whether you can go to live with Sirius, he told me the reason, and he also mentioned some things by the way."
"Petunia once wrote to Hogwarts. She also wanted to learn magic, but she was rejected."
Harry exclaimed suddenly with disbelief on his face: "How is this possible! Aunt Petunia doesn't even admit the existence of magic, she even"
"But it happened, Dumbledore himself wrote the reply."
"So you can imagine how jealous Penny was of your mother at that time. I think you should be very aware of the magic of magic, especially when your mother came back from the holiday. I think your aunt must not accept it." of."
"The more you like it, the greater the loss you will feel if you don't get it. This kind of jealousy caused by love and hatred also makes many Muggle-born wizards not want to be with their sisters and brothers after graduation. Mutual alienation, jealousy among children...it can easily degenerate into something not so good, such as: You are a monster! This kind of words or behavior exclusion."
"So, Aunt Petunia is the only one who understands magic." Harry nodded thoughtfully, whether he likes it or not, it's another matter whether he understands it or not.
"By the way, Hermione, roughly how much did you pay for school, when you were in elementary school."
"Tuition fee?" Hermione tilted her head, "For boarding school, it's about two thousand pounds a semester" (tuition fee in 1990)
Ron looked at Harry, and Harry, who was thinking of such a thing for the first time, was slightly silent.
Although the Dursleys have a good income, they are not comparable to dentists like Hermione's parents. The combined annual income of Hermione's parents can reach upwards of 60 pounds, and their house is worth at least 300 pounds. It was in the downtown area, and the Little Whinging district where the Dursleys were located was, to put it bluntly, a suburb.
Uncle Vernon is an employee who sells drilling rigs. Although his income is a little higher than the average person, he still works for others. It is really not easy to adopt Harry when they still need to pay the mortgage and car loan. matter.
"Because you have brought a lot of pressure to them, and because you have a talent for magic, as Muggles who are afraid of magic, they are also worried. If you look at this matter from their perspective, it's pretty bad, isn't it? Is it?"
Harry, with memories flashing in his eyes, recalled the scene when he flew up to the school chimney and frightened the teacher to call Aunt Petunia to reprimand him. He wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh out loud.
"For their family, you are indeed a burden and a dangerous burden. They adopted you. Maybe the experience it brought you was not good, or very, very bad, but adopting a wizard, for them For these ordinary people, isn't it a disaster?"
"I've been with you in fear for ten years, and both of you are very unhappy."
"But things in the past can't get any better, so in the future... Harry, you always need to return to this not warm home during the holidays. So if there is a way, I still hope you If you can live a little more comfortably here, if you can slightly dilute the unhappiness caused by not knowing the world of both sides, why not do it?"
"Wouldn't it be nice if they didn't lock up your luggage for at least the next time you go back for the summer?"
"makes sense"
Harry wouldn't forget his bad time at the Dursleys, but by hanging on to it, he'd make it worse for himself in the future, after all, he still had three summers to spend at the Dursleys. spend at home.
"I have to go back? Why?"
"Because the magic that protected you back then was love based on blood."
"If you want to maintain this magic, you need to go back to the family that is maintained by blood every year and does not make you happy."
"As long as they still admit it, as long as you still admit it, it's a family."
